"Where am I?"
You are a girl who woke up in some ally way with no recollection of how you got there or any event leading up to it. Your memories are hazy and scattered; they seem to mix and mesh together with other memories that don't seem to belon...
"So your father only brought you along just so he could use your stand" I asked.
She nodded "that's all he really keeps me around for."
"Can I ask how old you are?"
"I'm 12 years old."
"Would you feel comfortable with talking to me about it?"
She was visibly uncomfortable but told me nonetheless. Her parents had her as an accident, her father didn't want a child but her mother didn't want to abort her. Her father allowed it but her mother would have to work extra hard to earn money to support her. After Ignavia was about 4, her mother would work as a prostitute to earn enough money to care for her. Her father was obsessed with money and kept what he earned for himself, which is also why he would sell drugs and participate in other mafia related activities. He was never home much because of these and when he did come home, he would either be drunk and beat her mother or ignore them all together. No mater how terrible her father treated them, her mother had nowhere else to go and didn't have nearly enough money to get them another place to stay. Her mother didn't want her to live on the streets either, she wanted her to live rather comfortably. When she turned 10 and her stand manifested, she unconsciously inflicted her own deep feelings of despair onto her already suffering mother and drove her to commit suicide. Once her father learned of her abilities, he would use it for his own benefit; keeping her alive just to feed his own greed.
As she told me her story, her face was contorted into a look of pain and sorrow. I could tell that she was trying to keep herself from crying. She has been through so much for being so young. I don't want her to keep living this gang life, but I don't feel right to just leave her like this.
"How would you like to stay with us?" I ask her.
Her eyes widened as she looked up at me "what? Really?"
"Though I don't want you to continue on with gang life, I don't feel right leaving you as you are at the moment" I smiled to her "you can stay with us."
She nodded and smiled as tears came down her face.
I turned to the one way window and waved to it, assuming that (Name) was there. Not even a few seconds later, she came back into the room.
-Flashback end and back to (Name)-
In all honesty, I don't know what else I would expected from Bruno. He really is too much of a nice guy, he is such a mom.
"Cool" I said totally accepting his decision.
"Mind introducing her to the others for me while I talk to the other two?" He asked me.
"A-ah, don't be too hard on them please!" Ignavia said "they are like brothers to me. They are like the only ones that cared about me."
Bruno and I looked at each other.
Bruno looked back at her "I just need to ask them some questions. I won't hurt them unless they try to start a fight."
"You can watch over them while Buccirati talks to them from the other room" I told her as I held my hand out for her.
She nodded as she got up and walked over to me. I took out the bottle with both the boys in it and let the light user out first. Just before the mist cleared, I left the room with Ignavia.
I let her into the other room and took out another chair for her. She sat down and watched. I looked to the window and saw the guy start to become a bit panicked. It didn't take long for him to get up and look like he was ready to fight. I got up myself, ready to run into the next room to help but I suddenly felt a bit cold. The temperature dropped a few degrees for a moment and then turned into a gentle warmth. A sense of calm came over me and I looked over to Ignavia. I saw her stand behind her and she had a worried look on her face as she was watching her comrade. I then looked to the window and saw the guy also visibly calming down. Seeing this, I sat back down and watched as the conversation had continued on more calmly this time.
Thanks to Ignavias stand, not only did the questioning of the light guy go by smoothly, but also for the teleporting guy as well. I guess I should stop referring to them as that and call them by their names now. The light guys name is Luce and the the teleporting guys name is Occhio. The guys were like Ignavias care takers since her father never spent the time of day to actually take care of her like a parent should. They were both street kids until they joined that gang. They had a place to stay because of that and they were able to afford food so they stuck it out even though their boss didn't really treat them much better than Ignavia. Since they were together for so long, they became each other's family.

As the three sat together in the interrogation room just talking, me and Bruno were in the viewing room. The big guy was most likely dead when Nara shot up the basement of their base, but Bruno wanted to keep an eye on the other two for a while as well. He told me that he probably was reconsidering taking Ignavia in. Cuz if he took her in, he would probably have to take Luce and Occhio in too, he couldn't separate them after all they've been through together. I mean, there was nothing wrong with taking them in but that's going to be more people to accommodate for.
Before Bruno could say anything else, Anna piped up "they could join my team."
